Ice Ice Baby was released by American rapper Vanilla Ice in 1990 and became the first hip hop single to top the Billboard Hot 100. Its fame rests largely on the bassline sampled from Under Pressure by Queen and David Bowie, which gives this short hook its immediate recognition. The song was a defining pop rap moment of the early nineties and never really left popular culture. It keeps resurfacing in films, adverts, karaoke clips and meme edits, where the opening alone signals retro cool without needing the full track.

The iconic opening hook from Vanilla Ice's 1990 hit Ice Ice Baby, used in edits, memes and throwback posts for instant retro hip hop energy.
This short clip captures the instantly recognisable start of Ice Ice Baby, built around its rolling bassline and Vanilla Ice delivering the title phrase with confident, rhythmic swagger. The beat is clean and punchy, the vocal sits right up front, and the whole thing feels playful rather than aggressive. Even listeners who do not know the full song recognise the hook in a second. Dropped into a video, it brings immediate nostalgia, a cool entrance feeling, and a light comic confidence that makes an ordinary moment feel like a strut down a runway.
